While your thoughts are wonderful and they come from a loving spirit and a heart that feels love. It is even more wonderful to adopt that thankful attitude for every day. We must not forget those feeling of charity for the better part of a year and trot them out because the calendar says so. Give thanks and charity every day, it becomes easier with practice.

    Thank you Nomi, for your kind words for my poem. They are so appreciated, my dear friend! I agree with you 100% about these practices that need to be part of us everyday and is why I added that in my author's notes. I must tell you Nomi, that I am so truly thankful for you in my life. In case we don't cross paths in the next few days, Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours! God Bless!

This is a beautiful poem and that is so important remembering to give thanks to God for all that we have and what He's doing for us. We don't always do that. I like that you mentioned help those who don't have also because there are so many help and homeless people in our world and a lot of times we turn a death ear to them. I love that poems like this are a reminder, thank you, great writing and great poem.

Though we should give thanks for our every day lives, most take things for granted and only remember on days set aside to remind us of how grateful we should be. I loved the poem!

Hugs, Carol

This is such a lovely entry, mystery poet, much like a Thanksgiving card I would receive from a dear friend in the mail. Thank you for this, a real gift. Six stars for you today, and my very best to you in the upcoming contest.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours!

    Hi Sally, wow, thank you so much for these lovely six stars that look bigger than ever today. I appreciate it so much and my name must be showing on here now, because I did win the contest. Yay!! Thank you for such lovely words for this poem, as I am pretty happy with it too because I think I covered a lot of things that we should be thankful for and why. After that I will change the name to Thanksgiving we should all give thanks. Thanks again for such a lovely review . Almost as lovely as you my friend!

Very nice rhyme and celebration of the Season and the Reason. These are very tough times for our country and we need a Thanksgiving boost to remind us of the good we have done and can do. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours.

Excellent poem to give thanks on Thanksgiving. Also, a firm reminder that many, many people still live in abject poverty.

Your rhyme and metre is sound, and just one typo here:

For those who's (whose) health is bad or scarred

Wishing you great luck in the voting booth.

Gloria

I like the fact that you considerr the weak, the unfortunate, the vulnerable, while at the same time giving thanks for your own blessings. I pray that they will be well looked after, that people with compassion might share generously. A good reminder in your poem. Well done. Best wishes.
Wendy

    I'm sorry, I forgot that you don't celebrate, but I'm not going to erase it because any day is a good day to tell your lovely friend how much she means to you and that you are thankful for them. And I am! : )
